Remembering Dr. King


The Romulus Ministerial Alliance celebrated a community-wide march and vehicle procession on Monday to celebrate and remember the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The march began at Romulus Community Baptist Church and concluded at Pentecostal Baptist Church. Walkers remained at a  safe distance from others, while others remained in cars to help commemorate the accomplishments of Dr. King.
Following the march, there was a short program at Pentecostal Baptist Church with remarks from the Rev. Arthur Willis, president of the Romulus Ministerial Alliance; Mayor LeRoy Burcroff, Romulus Community Schools Superintendent Dr. Benjamin Edmondson, Romulus City Clerk Ellen Craig-Bragg; Gina Wilson Steward, CEO and publisher of The Telegram Newspaper, and local clergymen from surrounding neighborhoods.
